Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Pinewood Film Studios Open Day. DESCRIPTION: For the first time members of the Public see behind the scenes at the world famous Pinewood Studios. For two days they were allowed to walk around the Studios and the money raised was for the Cinema Trade Benevolent Fund. On view were many costumes and ‘props’ used in films made at Pinewood. Visitors were also able to see the huge set which was constructed for the last ‘Bond’ film. Movietone were able to film on the set during production and we see the stars Roger Moore and Barbara Bach during the shooting of a scene. The Wombles, at present filming at Pinewood under the Direction of Lionel Jeffries, made personal appearances and delighted many by signing autographs.
